Remove or hide ads in Yahoo Mail

You can temporarily hide the right-side advertisement you see in Yahoo Mail accounts on a computer, or permanently remove all graphical ads by upgrading to Ad Free Yahoo Mail. Text ads and ads in other versions of Yahoo Mail can't be hidden.

Temporarily hiding the right-side ad in free Yahoo Mail accounts

Click the right-facing arrow between your list of emails, or a single email you're viewing, and the advertisement on the right.

The ad is hidden from view.

A new ad will appear if you refresh the page or perform an action like replying to the opened email, marking the email as spam, or clicking on an item in the Left Navigation column.

Yahoo Mail is made available in part by the advertising you view while using our site. If you'd like to remove all graphical and text ads from your Yahoo Mail, when viewed on a computer, we encourage you to sign up for Yahoo Ad Free Mail if it's available in your region.
